AutoDispatch, also known as automatic dispatch refers to the process of automatically assigning and dispatching shipments without the need for manual intervention. Bringg’s AutoDispatch enables same day delivery options via automated, on-demand dispatching. It also allows you to batch orders and create quick ad hoc routes as sales orders come in. This technology significantly reduces human error, improves response times, and enhances overall operational efficiency. AutoDispatch is commonly used across various industries, including grocery, LTL, transportation, logistics, and field service management, where quick and accurate dispatching is crucial.
While route optimization focuses on finding the best routes for resource travel, automatic dispatch is concerned with the automatic allocation and dispatch of resources for on demand deliveries. Both concepts contribute to improving operational efficiency but address different aspects of operations management.
The goal of auto dispatch software is to automate the dispatch process, optimize resource allocation, and ensure efficient and timely response to on-demand deliveries. When on-demand orders are introduced into a cycle of pre planned tasks, it can disrupt the system and require a significant amount of manual effort. This entails determining the most suitable resource and method for dispatching the new on-demand delivery, while ensuring that it does not negatively impact other deliveries or the overall customer experience.
Using AutoDispatch within the last mile delivery ecosystem offers significant advantages, including improved efficiency, minimized human error, optimal resource allocation, enhanced response times, streamlined operations, real-time tracking, and valuable data analysis. By implementing AutoDispatch, organizations can optimize their dispatch processes, improve customer satisfaction, and achieve greater operational effectiveness.
